After breakfast, Ran Yunpo quickly left the Chu Palace. Song Zixuan, who was responsible for teaching Xi Honglei martial arts on Ran Yunpo's behalf, also appeared in front of Xi Honglei immediately.
The weather in the capital has gradually turned cooler, so Xi Honglei could only keep walking back and forth in the yard to keep his body warm in the wind. When he saw Song Zixuan slowly walking towards him, Xi Honglei stopped
After making a move, he smiled brightly at Song Zixuan and said, "General Song, long time no see."
Song Zixuan looked at Xi Hongli, and a flash of light flashed unconsciously in his eyes. "Miss Xi still wants to learn martial arts?"
"Of course I have to learn." Xi Honglei nodded matter-of-factly and replied, "I'm such a troublemaker, so it would be good for me to learn more."
Xi Honglei's answer made Song Zixuan purse his lips and smile. Although Song Zixuan didn't say it out loud, in his heart he very much agreed with Xi Honglei's words that she was very good at getting into trouble.
Song Zixuan nodded and glanced at the dozen or so guards standing behind Xi Honglei. Song Zixuan sighed secretly. "Are we right here?"
"Yes. If I go far away, the prince will be worried." Xi Honglei was always thinking about Ran Yunpo, which made Song Zixuan feel a little uncomfortable. "These people are specially arranged by the prince to protect me. If I leave, they will
It’s not easy to communicate with others either. So I asked General Lao Song to teach me, and let them feast their eyes on me and secretly learn General Song’s martial arts.”
"Miss Xi really loves to joke. The prince's subordinates must all be highly skilled in martial arts." Song Zixuan spoke politely to Xi Honglei, and then began to teach Xi Honglei martial arts in a serious manner.
Xi Honglei has learned martial arts from many people during this period. Ran Yunpo taught her, Mu Yunmeng taught her, and Feng Rusong also taught her. Xi Honglei herself has a good martial arts foundation.
The way several people taught Xi Honglei was easy to understand, so he learned much faster than ordinary people. Coupled with the teachings of Song Zixuan, a dignified general, Xi Honglei felt like he was suddenly enlightened...
Song Zixuan taught Xi Honglei step by step. Seeing that Xi Honglei was able to master it with just a few clicks, Song Zixuan was also secretly happy. After all, he came here today to comply with the will of Prince Chu. The prince had ordered him to teach Xi Honglei. If Xi Honglei
If Honglei can't even learn ordinary moves, he won't be able to compete.
Xi Honglei practiced the exercises diligently, and suddenly he missed the days when he was "abused" by Feng Rusong. He curled his lips, and Xi Honglei cursed himself for being a bitch in his heart. Then he practiced with Song Zixuan for almost
An hour later, Xi Honglei raised his hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead and said, "General Song, let's rest for a while."
"Okay." Song Zixuan nodded. Song Zixuan did not expect that Xi Honglei could continue to practice for so long.
"General Song, let's go inside and have a cup of tea." Xi Honglei invited Song Zixuan. Seeing Song Zixuan's troubled face, Xi Honglei was puzzled at first, but then quickly understood Song Zixuan's concerns.
She is the Princess of Chu given by the Emperor and the prospective fiancée of Prince Chu. Although it is in broad daylight, it is still not good for a man and a woman to be in the same room. What's more, their status is not trivial. If they are really gossiped about, then
That's not good.
Xi Honglei thought for a while and smiled with relief. He walked into the room first. Xi Honglei opened the door, sighed and said, "The room has not been ventilated some days. The weather is nice today, so I might as well open the door to ventilate it."
.”
After saying that, Xi Honglei looked back at Song Zixuan and asked: "General, you don't think Honglei's tea is bad and you don't want to come in, do you?"
"How could it be possible? Miss Xi is overthinking."
The door of the room was wide open. Every move of Xi Honglei and Song Zixuan was watched by Ran Yunpo's subordinates in the courtyard. Xi Honglei poured tea for Song Zixuan and sat across from Song Zixuan. He observed Song Zixuan silently.
Xi Honglei saw that Song Zixuan had become darker and thinner than before, and she couldn't help but think of Ran Yunshang. I wonder if Song Zixuan is still thinking of Yunshang?
A smile quickly appeared at the corner of Xi Honglei's mouth, and disappeared in an instant. Xi Honglei sipped the tea in the cup, and asked with twinkling eyes: "General, it has been some time since Honglei left the capital.
The first time I saw you, General, was before I left the capital. But when I came back this time, I saw that the General was fine, and Honglei was relieved. After all, the princess and I are like sisters, and I don’t want to see you unhappy all the time."
Xi Honglei mentioned Ran Yunshang intentionally or unintentionally, which made Song Zixuan frown tightly. Staring at Xi Honglei, Song Zixuan didn't understand what she meant by mentioning Ran Yunshang again.
"General, don't look at me like that, I'm scared." Xi Honglei smiled and shook his head, saying: "You are the person that the princess likes. Although she is gone now, I also hope you can live well. But... General
, Honglei has a question to ask you."
"what is the problem?"
"The question is..." Xi Honglei lowered his voice and whispered to Song Zixuan: "If the general meets another woman who likes you as much as the princess does, and you also have a good impression of her, will you still return to the past?
Still standing still?"
Xi Honglei's question made Song Zixuan stunned for a moment, then he looked at Xi Honglei with disgust and said nothing.
"General, don't think too much. Honglei just wants to remind you that some people are rare. If you really meet such a woman in the future, Honglei just hopes that you will not be restricted by their identities.
, and once again missed my own happiness. Even if you are the queen of the general, that person is a gangster. If you really like it, I also hope that you can be together. And I think this is what the princess wants to see. She doesn't
She will want to see you live a bad life and be unhappy. I know her, so I know it very well."
There was something in Xi Honglei's words, but Song Zixuan didn't know the true meaning of Xi Honglei's words. Looking at Xi Honglei intently, Song Zixuan moved the corners of his mouth, but never made any sound.
The two drank tea, chatted, and rested enough. Then they went back to the yard to practice Kung Fu. Until Ran Yunpo came back, the two of them were still busy in the yard.
"My lord! You're back!" Xi Honglei saw Ran Yunpo walking slowly with sharp eyes. He immediately put on a smile on his face and said happily. Her joy and enthusiasm made Ran Yunpo stop in his tracks.
, and continued to move forward.
"Yes." Ran Yunpo nodded slightly and looked at Xi Hong's tearful and sweaty look. "Have you been practicing until now?"
"I don't have anything to do, so I've been studying with the general." Xi Honglei spoke cautiously, observing Ran Yunpo's expression while answering in a low voice. Her cautious look also made Ran Yunpo feel inexplicably unhappy.
.
"I didn't say anything, what are you afraid of?" Ran Yunpo looked at Xi Honglei with a gloomy look, and said coldly: "Go back to the house and change clothes, aren't you going to Xi Mansion later?"
After exhaling his tears, Ran Yunpo turned to look at the others and ordered: "Go and boil some water for her to take a bath."
Ran Yunpo spoke, and Xi Honglei could only do as he was told. Returning to the room alone, Xi Honglei waited for the bath water and other items to be prepared, then eagerly jumped into the tub and took a comfortable bath.
Then he freshened up and dressed up, and walked out of the Chu Palace with Ran Yunpo and Song Zixuan.
Ran Yunpo was with Xi Honglei in person, so he didn't bring so many guards with him. The three of them walked leisurely on the street. When passing by the busy commercial street, Xi Honglei's expression suddenly changed, like a rural person entering the city.
Normally, pulling Ran Yunpo to look here and there would make Ran Yunpo's face darker and darker.
"Auntie, how much does this hairpin cost?" Xi Honglei walked to a stall selling headwear and fell in love with the thing in his hand at a glance. After asking the price, Xi Honglei reached out to touch her hand with joy.
waist, but found to her embarrassment that she didn’t bring any money with her at all.
Just when Xi Honglei was about to put down what she was holding and leave, a piece of silver flew from behind her. This made Xi Honglei immediately reach out and take it out of reflex.
Xi Honglei looked back at Ran Yunpo who was standing behind him, raised his money, and Xi Honglei succinctly said two words, "Thank you!", which made Ran Yunpo's unhappy mood slightly improve.
Xi Honglei bought something he liked and became more honest. The group of people continued walking towards Xi Mansion. However, Xi Honglei did not expect that they would bump into Mu Yunmeng again on such a narrow road.
Mu Yunmeng's appearance made Ran Yunpo stop instantly and increase his vigilance, and also made the smile on Xi Honglei's face disappear.
Xi Honglei glanced at Mu Yunmeng coldly, and raised the corner of his mouth with a mocking smile. He stretched out his hand to grab Ran Yunpo's sleeve, and Xi Honglei said in a medium voice: "Your Majesty, there is nothing good to see here.
What are you looking at?"
"Nothing, let's go." Ran Yunpo lowered his eyes and looked at Xi Honglei's hand holding his sleeve, and smiled slightly.
Several people passed by Mu Yunmeng without any words or eye contact.
Mu Yunmeng watched Xi Honglei pass by her, while her hand kept tugging on Ran Yunpo's sleeve. This made a cold light flash across Mu Yunmeng's eyes, and she couldn't understand what Xi Honglei was doing.
What kind of trick are you playing?
Mu Yunmeng had noticed something was wrong with her since the last time he saw Xi Honglei in the palace. And today's encounter made Mu Yunmeng confirm his thoughts.
Is this girl acting? But what is the murderous chill in her eyes? When did he provoke her?
Mu Yunmeng stood there and thought for a long time but could not come up with a result. However, there were still important things at hand, so Mu Yunmeng could not waste too much time on this issue. After taking a deep look at Xi Honglei
After his back, Mu Yunmeng quickly turned around and soon disappeared into the crowd.
